In a four-way limped pot to the J♠8♦3♣ flop, the small blind checked, as did Ken Aldridge from the big blind. The under-the-gun player and the hijack were also in the hand and checked.
Action checked to the hijack on the 4♠ turn, and he bet 1,500. Only the blinds called.
The 10♥ river then checked through to showdown.
The hijack tabled his hand first, showing A♥9♦6♠3♦ for an eight-six low. Aldridge tabled K♦J♦8♠2♠ for jacks and eights. The small blind couldn't beat either hand and mucked, for the the hijack and Aldridge to chop the pot.
